Even A Blind Squirrel Finds A Nut Every Once In Awhile.

Raise the keg and celebrate. It's Cinco de Mayo and the O's finally won.

First of all, I want to say good job to John for putting together a ridiculously long live blog of the baseball game tonight and the 2 hour rain delay that preceded it. My guess is he won't be volunteering to do a live blog again anytime soon.

But back to the task at hand. The O's ended their skid today with an 8-4 win over the Rays of Tampa. Brian Roberts and Nick Markakis did what they are paid to do and each hit a home run to lead the O's offense, while Adam Eaton turned in another decent pitching performance (maybe I was wrong about him... on second thought, probably not).

The O's go for the sweep tomorrow, which begs the question can you even sweep a two game series? Oh well, us O's fans have to enjoy the small victories in life. Have a good Cinco de Mayo everyone and have some beer/tequila/whatever you are drinking, for me because I will be spending all day studying for my Wednesday exam. Enjoy.
